importance of critical thinking
Critical thinking plays an important role in achieving success in all professional fields. Critical thinking deals with careful interpretation of information and using it to reach a practical conclusion. The principle of critical thinking can be applied to any context, as the concepts are universal, however, their application or practices depend on the specialization in which you want to apply them.
Critical Thinking is applied in the following spheres: Anthropology, Psychology, Biology, Sociology, Philosophy, Ecology, History, Mathematics, Legal, Politics, Chemistry, Ethics, Music, Artistry and Business.
In these fields, it is extremely important to analyze, evaluate, and explain everything in detail with sound logic and research, hence Critical Thinking is essential in getting success in these fields. There are cases where people with sound knowledge and logical inquiry have made mistakes because they couldn’t apply the methods, which were too complex and impractical to implement successfully.
